The car air filter consists of a housing and a filter element
The air filter is installed on the right side of the engine compartment.
The filter housing is removed during repairs or to access other elements of the car's power plant.
The air filter element is replaced after 20 thousand km of car mileage.
But it is advisable to shorten this period depending on the operating conditions of the car (dustiness of the area).
Between element replacements, if possible, blow out the air filter with compressed air.
The filter element can be replaced without removing the filter housing.
If the air filter is clogged, black smoke will come out of the exhaust pipe, the fuel will not completely burn in the engine combustion chambers.
As a result, engine power will be reduced, fuel consumption will be increased fuel.
